In the early years of the Republic of China, warlords were fighting each other, and the people were living in misery. In the troubled times, a group of old swindlers who made a living by deception provided a stage to show their skills. The gangster boss Lin Xiaotian (played by Liu Chengjun) learned from an old swindler that the Japanese would give warlord Wang Dashuai (played by Jiu Kong) twelve boxes of gold as funds for the warlord to resist the Northern Expedition. In order to get this batch of gold, Lin Xiaotian began to recruit soldiers and horses. Among them, the old swindler "Ghost Face" (played by Ren Xianqi) and the "Immovable Stone Buddha" (played by Tengger) became Lin Xiaotian's first target. Who knew that "Ghost Face" and "Stone Buddha" were enemies who could not meet. In order to put each other to death, the two launched a big contest of deception, but unexpectedly, the two were evenly matched in this contest. During the period, "Ghost Face" met "Dumpling" (played by Xiong Naijin) who pretended to be a nun to steal, and "Dumpling", who was good at unlocking, was also involved in Lin Xiaotian's conspiracy. The group of people rushed to the gold trading place "Fengkou Town". Fengkou Town is a sparsely populated town with only a hundred households, but there is a local bandit gang that is feared by the people. The leader Jin Sanniang (played by Weng Hong) fell in love with the "Stone Buddha" in a melee and insisted on taking the Stone Buddha to be her "master". In order to get the gold secretly, the "Stone Buddha" proposed a shocking plan of stealing and replacing the pillars - the double city plan, turning another abandoned town - "Luoshui Town" into "Fengkou Town", and a plan for gold mines was launched in full swing.
